Say what you will about M$, but they want Windows to be a real OS,
competitive in serious use to Linux or any other OS, how they manage
to incorporate so much and have it run smoothly, I can't honestly say,
but I have nevertheless found Linux to have a more common sense,
lighter architecture, and thus not just a resource hog as Windows
increases in being constantly. A lot of folks will say that, using
the present as an example, continuing to run Windows 10 is the answer.
But I thought the point of running M$ was to have the bleeding edge of
desktop computing - that's Win11, today, soon to be 12. The way one
hits a dead end with Windows OS upgrades on same hardware makes the
whole point of having it lost. Linux doesn't do that.

But that's the whole point of Microsoft's existence! Make the current
hardware and software obsolete, so you can sell new stuff to the poor users.
